I. Letter to Shareholders Dear Shareholders, I.

Foreword The overall economy and domestic elections in 2016 resulted in a challenging year for SYSTEX. As the digital transformation of the new economy continues to accelerate, the hardware products become commodity, and software licensing procurement becomes increasingly cloud-based, it was inevitable that our profit margins in hardware and software procurement as well as maintenance services were affected. The overall financial market remains inactive as securities firms continue to consolidate their service locations. The deferral of public sector and telecommunication client budgets also pressured our business performance in 2016.

II. Summary of 2016 Operational Outcomes In 2016, SYSTEX achieved an operating revenue of NT$ (denomination) 5,733,038,000, a 6.03% decline from 2015. The net profit after tax in 2016 was $1,108,268,000. The consolidated revenue in 2016 was $16,210,380,000, a slight decrease of 0.63% from 2015. The consolidated net profit after tax in 2016 (excluding non-controlling interests)

was $1,108,268,000 and earnings per share were $4.50.

III. Summary of 2016 Business Operations and Services Despite mounting challenges, SYSTEX still achieved significant growth for the year 2016 in the new retail and multiple payment options market segments including one-stop services for e-commerce brands, government cloud services, digital voucher services, customer relationship management (CRM) for e-commerce platforms and multiple payment billing services etc. Intelligent financing, SYSTEX also helped clients in the financial industry such as online account opening platforms, online loan applications, Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, FundRich Securities, cloud services for securities firms, cross-border foreign exchange platforms, and other projects acquire absolute leading positions in digital transformation and development. The Company moreover achieved substantial results in Telco Media Technology (TMT) market operations, including mobile video and audio services/e-commerce/payment, commercial platforms, and cybersecurity solutions. Other achievements include expansion in data processing for the insurance industry, insurance agencies, and financing operations. In the healthcare industry, the Company also expanded from public and veterans' hospital systems to private medical systems, whereas smart manufacturing and large scale cross-industry and cross-border APP projects in the Central and Southern Regions of Taiwan are also listed among our major achievements for 2016. In terms of business investment collaborations undertaken in 2016, SYSTEX invested in the leading electronic ticketing firm in Taiwan, intensified the Group's market share and influence in retail stores, and attained a leading position in the O2O electronic tickets market. In addition, the Company also continued to expand overseas collaboration and alliances including investment in Taiwan's first FinTech brand on the international market – INSTOMENT Inc., a service platform that provides C2C payment by installments, launched operations in the cross-border e-commerce market, and engaged in the development of cross-border APPs. All of these achievements demonstrate SYSTEX's success in advancing beyond traditional businesses and exploring new sectors of development. In addition to Taiwan market, SYSTEX also achieved substantial progress in the Greater China market. Revenue from the China market already makes up 20% of SYSTEX Group's revenue. Among them, the strategic investment in shares of Shenzhen Forms Syntron Information began to bear fruit last year and has generated NT$4 billion in profits for SYSTEX since the beginning of investment, a source of income that can be utilized as strong support for future business expansion. Investment in the smart hotel convergence platform has been gradually exhibiting positive outcomes and continues to grow at a steady pace. The number of partner hotels has reached 1,000, enabling our platform to become China's largest smart hotel services provider. The platform also obtained China's first video on demand (VOD) license and owns 30,000 hours of content, advantages that are

I. Letter to Shareholders anticipated to widen the gap with competitors as revenue from advertisement show substantial growth. Continuous expansion to overseas markets including Taiwan and Japan will be the next steps taken. The Company teamed up with the founder of Splunk to establish Gemini, which had started out from the Silicon Valley and obtained international channels. It now has clients all over the world and succeeded in expansion into the European and American markets. IV. The effect of external competition, the legal environment, and the overall business environment Global political and economic changes have led to four major variables in the outlook of the 2017 global economy. These include US policy changes, Brexit developments, the rise of trade protectionism, and shifting political and economic trends in the European Union. In terms of domestic policies, lively discussions on the development of FinTech and third-party payment in 2016 continued as related strategies and solutions become major development operations for both public and private sectors in 2017. Rapid developments in the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) will moreover become important factors in the driving of corporate growth. In conclusion, 2017 will be a year of both challenges and opportunities. V. The summary of the business plan for 2017 SYSTEX's goal this year is to become the "optimal partner in corporate digital transformation." To this end, the Company will focus on three major sectors, including "new retail - omni-channel multiple payment options," "intelligent finance," and "TMT" The Company shall continue to engage in innovative applications and increase the value of its services, lead the integration of the digital ecosystem, endeavor to acquire maximum client budgets in digital transformation and data value-added services, and increase profitability in digital transformation leadership and integration. To accomplish the goal of becoming the "optimal partner in corporate digital transformation," SYSTEX plans to reorganize the Group in 2017 and redefine the strategies of its three major business units: FBI(Financial Business Integration): As leader of FinTech, the Company shall develop intelligent financing centered on FinTech so as to accommodate the digital transformation plans of customers in the finance sector. It shall also adequately maintain relationships with large-scale FinTech customers and focus on major aspects of business such as mobile APP transition services, integrated investor services, and upgraded wealth management services etc. CBI(Consumer-Facing Business Integration): As leader in omni-channel multiple payment options services, the Company shall focus on the new retail sector and the provision of omni-channel multiple payment options services. It shall also focus on digital e-commerce and offer clients assistance with O2O operations for the realization of digital transformation. DBI(Data Technology Business Integration): As leader in data technologies, the Company shall provide comprehensive data technology product combinations and solutions and utilize data knowledge to play the role of the Data Enabler that drives corporate smart growth. In addition to obtaining stable profits in the China market, the Company shall also partner with local companies to expand independent operations. It shall also develop its own products by acquiring products and teams with forward-looking technologies that are compatible with market demands. The Company is also actively seeking investment opportunities in Internet +, IoT, and the cloud service sectors or participation in collaborative businesses with new industries in China to drive momentum for growth. VI. Future development strategy The world is undergoing changes at increasing speeds and intensities. With the prevalence of the new digital economy, all companies will require digital transformation because "data profits" can only be achieved through the continued accumulation of "data capital" and "data assets." SYSTEX will remain committed to investments in the five major strategic capabilities of digital transformation:

IoT + AI, Hybrid Cloud, Cybersecurity, AI, and other key growth sectors and leading the

integration of the digital ecosystem through cross-sector collaboration. The Company shall also focus on the development of its three major core capabilities including software, data, and AI. With data technologies as its core capability and AI as the driving force for software application developments, SYSTEX will persist in creating new life experiences and increasing its value of services, thereby becoming the optimal partner for corporations seeking digital transformation.

In customer market services in the future, the Company shall provide long-term services to vertical industry applications such as the finance industry, telecommunication industry, manufacturing, medical facilities, distribution industry, government agencies and the transportation industry as well as integration with different platforms and IT infrastructure construction. The Company uses its broad knowledge in the field and international organization and collaboration capabilities to become the first choice long-term IT partner for enterprises and a leading information service provider. B. Industry Trends New technological development and information application innovations in recent years have advanced robust growth in the global information service industry. As information services grew, one can observe the vigorous use of new technologies such as mobile applications, big data, social media etc. on the market. As the global market economy continues to recover and the way is paved for system upgrades and technological applications, the key services provided by system integrators in recent periods have shifted to the establishment, maintenance, operations, and big data applications of private clouds. In Taiwan's information service market, the emphasis has shifted to system integration services which are dominated by the demand from large-scale enterprises in Taiwan and government agencies in the public sector. As major enterprises rush to develop their global markets, they must expand information software/hardware, update legal compliance protocols, and maintain existing systems. Information system solutions also require adjustment after mergers and consolidation of corporate organizations. According to the demand in Taiwan's information service trends, the market scale is expected to grow from the NT$164.6 billion in 2016 to NT$176.1 billion in 2018 with an annual growth rate of approximately 3-5%. New information technologies are not only current global trends but also important items that lead the development of Taiwan's information service industries. The survey conducted by the Institute for Information Industry (III) on Taiwan's top 101 corporations indicates that the top five most important new technologies for enterprises are virtual services, new information security, mobile applications, big data access, and cloud services. The focus of IT services shall also be on how to satisfy demands of corporate users under all conditions and environments. The transmission and implementation of information shall also be integrated in a more effective manner. Therefore the key to projecting full IT power and accurately obtain profits include the appropriate use of environmental awareness capabilities and the omnipresent accurate analytical skills. Therefore, the five major new economy issues including the cloud, social, mobile, analytics, and cybersecurity as well as various cloud, IoT, big data, mobile security, and corporate software applications are expected to form the main demand of companies in Taiwan. In the software market in Taiwan, the software service market continues its stable growth and risk management, cloud computing, International Accounting Standards, and the Personal Information Protection Act have become the main factors in driving market growth in recent periods. Looking ahead, the development of cloud computing, big data, social media, and mobile applications shall continue to mature. As large-scale companies and the public sector become more willing to adopt these technologies, the market shall also continue to grow. The market scale is expected to grow from the NT$67.8 billion in 2014 to NT$83.6 billion in 2019 with a compound annual growth rate of approximately 4.3%. In addition, embedded software, including software embedded in IoT devices, sensors, industrial automation equipment, and telecommunication equipment shall also grow due to the advancement of IoT applications.

V. Operational Highlights Set software for the general market including productivity software, gaming software, mobile apps, and video editing software that rely on mobile applications shall also maintain growth. Corporate solutions including application software, information security, database, and development tools shall also experience small-scale growth. C. Industrial Market Analysis (a) Intelligent Finance: Systex has accumulated outstanding capabilities in decades of in-depth experience in finance and IT technology fields. The Company shall assist financial institutions to construct various financial transaction platforms, provide technical consulting services and assistance for maintenance, and play an important role in the development of the financial information industry. Systex has constructed an investment platform in Greater China in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. It also owns integrated financial information across platforms and markets in the world's most important market. Under FinTech (financial technology) trends, the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) took decisive steps in allowing bank investment in FinTech and drastically expanded the upper limit of financial institutions' investment in financial technologies from 5% in the past to 100%. The goal is to facilitate NT$5 billion in investment in the financial sector within 5 years and the establishment of 30 new FinTech companies. In addition, development in mobile application has created new markets and the FSC's Bank 3.0 declaration also spurred the competition between financial institutions in mobile services. The management and opening of Bank 3.0 policies pushed mobile financial services from a supporting role to the main stage. As various financial institutions expand mobile services, functions, and scope in response to the policy, they also hope to use the omnipresence of mobile services to create revenue from services or to lower the risk of services. The rise of FinTech trends including big data, cloud technologies, machine learning, mobile payment, automated investment financing consultancy, blockchain technology, biometrics, interface design, software research and development, Internet of things, wireless communications business, and other related services affect various related industries such as securities and futures firms, banks, life insurance operators, and investment trust and consultancies. The scale of operations includes financial holdings, foreign banks, and local operators. (b) New Retail Omni-channel Multi-payment Options: The online to offline channels in the new retail era will guide website visitors to physical stores to purchase products. Many retail operators of physical stores will also go online and use e-commerce services to extend their operations overseas. Due to the popularity of smart mobile devices, consumers can collect related product information at any time and continuously compare prices. They could also post reviews to discuss their thoughts on the use of products or exchange opinions with friends and provide increasingly challenging consumer demands. The future market shall be more digital and more mobile. The electronic statements and mobile applications are important areas of Systex's operations in the retail market. Customers will use electronic statement and mobile payment en masse to cut costs and lower restrictions. The market opportunities for electronic statements and mobile applications such as interactive electronic statements, video electronic statements, LBS discount information services, mobile payment, and mobile discount coupons would therefore be increased. As related regulations on mobile payment in Taiwan are gradually relaxed and collaboration between telecommunication operators, banks, and mobile phone manufacturers continued, the mobile payment application market is expected to develop rapidly. The application shall become the payment tool that promotes consumption, invigorates the

-84-

V. Operational Highlights consumer market, and create business opportunities in consumption. The digitalization and mobilization of customer payment behavior are unavoidable trends. Based on the convenience provided by cloud services, the mobile business sector with mobile payment at its core shall continue expansion to the High Speed Rail, gas stations, parking lots, hypermarkets, supermarkets, catering, education and entertainment. Due to the diversity of payment options, payment for transportation ranging from small payments to airplane tickets and to remote payment in mobile shopping, and other transactions shall progress from physical to virtual transactions and from fixed points to mobile, till an innovative cloud-based service between the virtual and real world is finally established. People's daily lives will also step closer to mobile commerce. (c) Data Technology Products and Services: Business opportunities in cloud-based applications and the importance of real-time information drastically drove major IT firms to actively pursue related cloud-based applications. Cloud-based applications have an extremely wide scope and IT firms usually use mergers and acquisitions to quickly build core competitiveness and this in turn triggers the "acquisitions, mergers, and consolidation" development in the industry. The next-generation communication standards involve using 5G to build new network applications for facilitating user convenience. The leading mobile telecommunication operators of the future 5G network construction and services in Europe, the United States, and Asia such as Verizon and NTT DoCoMo etc. will continue conducting field tests in preparation for 5G commercialization in 2017 to 2018 at the earliest. This evolution in communications technology is expected to trigger new internet applications and create further sales opportunities for related hardware/software equipment. Industry 4.0 spearheaded the business opportunities for restructuring corporate information structures. The government is actively advancing Productivity 4.0 as global industries advance toward smart manufacturing and various equipment, control systems, and sensing devices are connected to the corporate information platform environment. Corporate information network structure may become more complicated and fragmented, and cause overlaps in IT and OT (operation technology) systems, intertwined old and new network environments, and errors in the security system. Productivity 4.0 is therefore expected to generate business opportunities in new types of "corporate diagnosis," "structure design," and "system reorganization." For SAP products, representative corporate-level software will shift toward big data, mobile devices, the IoT, and Internet communities. Faced with interwoven risks and threats, traditional information security protection strategies are no longer sufficient. Their responses to incidents are not sufficiently agile, and it is not enough to only reinforce the procurement of defensive equipment. Market research institute Gartner indicated in the report titled "Gartner Identifies the Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends for 2016" that one of the top ten strategic technical trends of the year 2016 is Adaptive Security Architecture, which serves as the basis for all ten trends. To counter future information security threats, the adaptive security architecture is an indispensable way for companies to formulate information security strategies in the future. Compared to traditional security strategies, the adaptive security architecture focuses more on the integration of four main defensive capabilities and preventative strategies before the occurrences of incidents. Companies can no longer rely on singular protective equipment to counter future threats and they should adopt the four major defensive capabilities and twelve core capabilities to construct corporate information security protection. Traditional information security protection only focuses on four capabilities including defense from attacks, detection of incidents, risk analysis, and incident forensics. Only the adaptive security architecture can construct an operations center that can continue to provide security for modern enterprises. Gartner also pointed out that in order to respond to threats in the new age,

-85-

V. Operational Highlights companies should carefully select their information security service provider and seek firms that are able to provide vertical integration of defensive products or horizontal integration of products across a variety of brands. D. Relationships with suppliers in the industry's supply chain In the overall information industry, Systex remains Taiwan's largest information service company. Systex plans software licensing options and provides services based on customer requirements and budget. The Company seeks to become a leading brand with the most industrial value in the knowledge economy in the progress of advancing digitalization for the finance, telecommunication, channels, manufacturing industry, and other customer groups with requirements. Systex shall provide customers with services including system planning, software installation, education, training, and technical support services and play the role for the control of customers, maintenance of customers, and service of customers. Upstream firms include information software/hardware providers or distributors such as Microsoft, HP, Serena, BMC, SAP, and Oracle. Downstream firms consist mainly of the finance industry, telecommunication industry, e-commerce, retail and distribution industry, manufacturing, government authorities and schools etc. E. Product trends and competition Systex is a leading domestic information service provider and the most reputable technology leader in the industry. The Company values services and uses its core advantages in resource integration and implementation as well as innovative product lines and resources collaboration to achieve Systex's leading position in the IT service industry. The number of competitors in Taiwan's IT market is immense. Particularly with the global economic recession in recent years, the decrease in GDP in Taiwan and across the world, changes in the structure of the industry, the overall political and economic environment, regulatory systems, corporate mergers and consolidation, and continuous improvement of their own operational health, the overall IT service market in Taiwan will be affected. As companies continue to relocate overseas and IT firms fail to provide differentiated products and services, the price competition in the industry has become increasingly severe. As certain IT firms retain limited technical capabilities and do not hold pricing advantages under the intense competition on the market, large-scale service providers with quality IT services gradually expanded the gap between them and the small and medium companies.

Systex follows information technology development trends to provide customers with the latest applications and services. For instance, as customers increasingly adopt smart mobile devices, the Company shall provide customers with more diversified mobile finance services, content, and tools. The Company also actively collaborates with international information firms (such as Reuters and Morning Star) across different industries to build a quality finance information platform and to provide customers with higher added-value services.

V. Operational Highlights Unfavorable Factors The market in Taiwan is saturated and the intense price competition in the industry lowers profits. The recent global economic downturn has continued to shrink the domestic IT service market as customers' budgets decreased and it became increasingly difficult to sustain growth.

Political uncertainties in recent years have led to delays and cuts in budget. The challenge of large-scale Chinese SIs entering the Taiwanese market in the post-ECFA era. Potential customers' understanding of the benefits of IT outsourcing requires improvement. Competitors continue to lower prices for equipment maintenance in order to obtain market share, which has led to the reduction of gross margins.

Talents are critical assets in the IT industry.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other independent auditors (refer to paragraph of Other Matter), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Our audit procedures for the abovementioned key audit matter included: 1.

We obtained and assessed the report of lower of cost or net realizable value prepared by management. We examined the amounts and categories in the aging analysis report of inventories. We assessed the reasonableness of net realizable value by sampling the latest and post year-end sales.

We attended year-end inventory counts and assessed the condition of inventories to evaluate the completeness of inventory provisions for obsolete and damaged goods.

Valuation of Accounts Receivable Impairment As of December 31, 2016, the accounts receivables amounted to $3,304,915 thousand, significant to the Group. The decision of the determinant of the recoverability of accounts receivable involves subjective judgements, including the assumptions of credit risk to clients, the impairment rates based on historical experiences, and the provision for already-identified issues. Therefore, we consider the valuation of accounts receivable impairment as a key audit matter in 2016. For the disclosure related to accounts receivable, refer to Notes 5 and 10. Our audit procedures for the abovementioned key matter included: 1.

We obtained the reports of accounts receivable impairment and assessed the reasonableness of the methodology and data used in the reports. In order to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we reviewed the related calculation and validated the aging amounts as of the balance sheet date to understand, judge, and measure the potential risk in overdue balances.

2.

We tested recoverability of accounts receivables by verifying cash receipts in the subsequent period. For a receivable that was past due and not yet received, we assessed the reasonableness of the allowance for the doubtful accounts based on the customer’s payment history, the bank’s guarantee provided, and our understanding of macro-economic environment.

Investments Accounted for Using Equity Method The Group disposed of the investment (partial ownership of Shenzhen Forms Syntron Information Co., Ltd.) accounted for by the equity method, resulting in a gain of $1,168,277 thousand, an amount that is material to the 2016 consolidated financial statements of the Group. The calculation for the gain on sale of the investments accounted for using the equity method was complicated and involved in tax computation, which affected the ending balance of the investment accounted for using the equity method and the recognized gain on the sale of the investments. For the disclosure related to the investment under the equity method, refer to Note 15.

-116-

Our audit procedures for the abovementioned key matter included: 1. We obtained and verified the documents regarding the disposal of the investment in Shenzhen Forms Syntron Information Co., Ltd., which was accounted for using the equity method, and regarding the transfer of the shares in order to confirm the completion of the transaction. 2.

We reviewed and verified the movements of the investment accounted for using the equity method and the related gain on sale of investments according to related regulations. We verified the tax payment receipts related to this transaction in order to assess the appropriateness of the recognition for related income, expense, and tax.

Other Matter We did not audit the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 of SoftMobile Technology Corporation, Rainbow Tech Information (HK) Limited and Systex Information (H.K.) Ltd., which are all consolidated subsidiaries. The aggregate assets of these subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to $505,825 thousand and $466,037 thousand, respectively, or 2.65% and 2.50% of the respective consolidated assets. The aggregate net operating revenues of these subsidiaries in 2016 and 2015 were $1,126,067 thousand and $866,911 thousand, respectively, or 6.95% and 5.31% of the respective consolidated net operating revenues. We also did not audit the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 of Sanfran Technologies and Forms Syntron Information (Shenzhen) Limited, and the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 of AFE Solutions Limited, Bisnews International Limited, Sanfran Technologies Inc., Yankey Information Co., Ltd. and Forms Syntron Information (Shenzhen) Limited, the investments in which were accounted by the equity method, shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The aggregate carrying amounts of these investments accounted by equity method as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, including those reclassified to noncurrent assets held for sale, were $838,453 thousand and $1,227,632 thousand, respectively, or 4.39% and 6.58% of the respective consolidated assets. The aggregate amounts of share of their profit and other comprehensive income in 2016 and 2015 were $4,339 thousand and $(13,636) thousand, respectively, or 0.5% and (2.52%) of the respective consolidated comprehensive income. The subsidiaries and investees’ financial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been provided to us and, our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for these subsidiaries and investees, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Systex Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 on which we have issued an unmodified report with other matter paragraph. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

-117-

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance, including the audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process. Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: 1.

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

2.

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

3.

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

4.

Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 6.

Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. -118-

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Shu-Wan Lin and Shiow-Ming Shue.

SYSTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016 AND 2015 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

1. GENERAL INFORMATION Systex Corporation (the Corporation) was incorporated on January 7, 1997 under the provision of the Company Act of the Republic of China and other laws and regulations. The Corporation is mainly engaged in sales and leases of computer software and related equipment, transmission and security of value-added network, maintenance of database, and consultation. The Corporation’s shares had been traded on Emerging Stock Market since April 10, 2002 and Taipei Exchange since January 6, 2003. On December 30, 2010, the Corporation has changed the listing and trading of its shares to the Taiwan Stock Exchange. The consolidated financial statements are presented in the Corporation’s functional currency, New Taiwan dollars.

2. APPROVAL OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Corporation’s board of directors on March 23, 2017.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW, AMENDED AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS a. Amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), Interpretations of IFRS (IFRIC), and Interpretations of IAS (SIC) endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) for application starting from 2017 Rule No. 1050050021 and Rule No. 1050026834 issued by the FSC stipulated that starting January 1, 2017, the Group should apply the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC and SIC (collectively, the IFRSs) issued by the IASB and endorsed by the FSC for application starting from 2017. New, Amended or Revised Standards and Interpretations (the New IFRSs) Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 “Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception” Amendment to IFRS 11 “Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations” IFRS 14 “Regulatory Deferral Accounts” Amendment to IAS 1 “Disclosure Initiative”

Effective Date Announced by IASB (Note 1) January 1, 2016 January 1, 2016 July 1, 2014 January 1, 2016 January 1, 2014 January 1, 2014 January 1, 2014 (Concluded)

Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above New or amended IFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates. Note 2: The amendment to IFRS 2 applies to share-based payment transactions with grant date on or after July 1, 2014; the amendment to IFRS 3 applies to business combinations with acquisition date on or after July 1, 2014; the amendment to IFRS 13 is effective immediately; the remaining amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. Note 3: The amendment to IFRS 5 is applied prospectively to changes in a method of disposal that occur in annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016; the remaining amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. The initial application in 2017 of the above IFRSs and related amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers would not have any material impact on the accounting policies of the Corporation and entities controlled by the Corporation (collectively, the “Group”), except for the following: 1) Amendment to IAS 36 “Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-financial Assets” The amendment clarifies that the recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is disclosed only when an impairment loss on the asset has been recognized or reversed during the period. Furthermore, if the recoverable amount of an item of property, plant and equipment for which impairment loss has been recognized or reversed is fair value less costs of disposal, the Group is required to disclose the fair value hierarchy. If the fair value measurements are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3, the valuation technique and key assumptions used to measure the fair value are disclosed. The discount rate used is disclosed if such fair value less costs of disposal is measured by using present value technique. The amendment will be applied retrospectively. 2) Annual Improvements to IFRSs:

The amended IFRS 2 changes the definitions of “vesting condition” and “market condition” and adds definitions for “performance condition” and “service condition”. The amendment clarifies that a performance target can be based on the operations (i.e. a non-market condition) of the Group or another entity in the same group or the market price of the equity instruments of the Group or another entity in the same group (i.e. a market condition); that a performance target can relate either to the performance of the Group as a whole or to some part of it (e.g. a division); and that the period for achieving a performance condition must not extend beyond the end of the related service period. In addition, a share market index target is not a performance condition because it not only reflects the performance of the Group, but also of other entities outside the Group. The share-based payment arrangements with market conditions, non-market conditions or non-vesting conditions will be accounted for differently, and the aforementioned amendment will be applied prospectively to those share-based payments granted on or after January 1, 2017. IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that contingent consideration should be measured at fair value, irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is a financial instrument within the scope of IFRS 9 or IAS 39. Changes in fair value should be recognized in profit or loss. The amendment will be applied prospectively to business combination with acquisition date on or after January 1, 2017. The amended IFRS 8 requires the Group to disclose the judgments made by management in applying the aggregation criteria to operating segments, including a description of the operating segments aggregated and the economic indicators assessed in determining whether the operating segments have “similar economic characteristics”. The amendment also clarifies that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets should only be provided if the segments’ assets are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The judgements made in applying aggregation criteria should be disclosed retrospectively upon initial application of the amendment in 2017. When the amended IFRS 13 becomes effective in 2017, the short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate will be measured at their invoice amounts without discounting, if the effect of not discounting is immaterial. IAS 24 was amended to clarify that a management entity providing key management personnel services to the Group is a related party of the Group. Consequently, the Group is required to disclose as related party transactions the amounts incurred for the service paid or payable to the management entity for the provision of key management personnel services. However, disclosure of the components of such compensation is not required. 3) Annual Improvements to IFRSs:

2011-2013 Cycle

Several standards, including IFRS 3, IFRS 13 and IAS 40 “Investment Property”, were amended in this annual improvement. The scope in IFRS 13 of the portfolio exception for measuring the fair value of a group of financial assets and financial liabilities on a net basis was amended to clarify that it includes all contracts that are within the scope of, and accounted for in accordance with, IAS 39 or IFRS 9, even those contracts do not meet the definitions of financial assets or financial liabilities within IAS 32. 4) Amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers The amendments include additions of several accounting items and requirements for disclosures of impairment of non-financial assets as a consequence of the IFRSs endorsed by the FSC for application starting from 2017. In addition, as a result of the post implementation review of IFRSs in Taiwan, the amendments also include emphasis on certain recognition and measurement considerations and add requirements for disclosures of related party transactions and goodwill. -129-

The amendments stipulate that other companies or institutions of which the chairman of the board of directors or president serves as the chairman of the board of directors or the president, or is the spouse or second immediate family of the chairman of the board of directors or president of the Group are deemed to have a substantive related party relationship, unless it can be demonstrated that no control, joint control, or significant influence exists. Furthermore, the amendments require the disclosure of the names of the related parties and the relationship with whom the Group has significant transaction. If the transaction or balance with a specific related party is 10% or more of the Group’s respective total transaction or balance, such transaction should be separately disclosed by the name of each related party. Except for the above impacts, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group continues assessing other possible impacts that application of the aforementioned amendments and the related amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers will have on the Group’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose these other impacts when the assessment is completed. b. New IFRSs in issue but not yet endorsed by the FSC The Group has not applied the following IFRSs issued by the IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC. The FSC announced that IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 will take effect starting January 1, 2018. As of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the FSC has not announced the effective dates of other new IFRSs. Effective Date Announced by IASB (Note 1)

Note 2 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 To be determined by IASB January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2019 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2017 January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018

Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates. Note 2: The amendment to IFRS 12 is retrospectively applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017; the amendment to IAS 28 is retrospectively applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

-130-

1) IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” Recognition and measurement of financial assets With regards to financial assets, all recognized financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” are subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value. Under IFRS 9, the requirement for the classification of financial assets is stated below. For the Group’s debt instruments that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, their classification and measurement are as follows: a) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, the financial assets are measured at amortized cost and are assessed for impairment continuously with impairment loss recognized in profit or loss, if any. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method; b) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both the collecting of contractual cash flows and the selling of financial assets, the financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and are assessed for impairment. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method, and other gain or loss shall be recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses. When the debt instruments are derecognized or reclassified, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss. Except for the above, all other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss. However, the Group may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognized in profit or loss. No subsequent impairment assessment is required, and the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income cannot be reclassified from equity to profit or loss. Impairment of financial assets IFRS 9 requires impairment loss on financial assets to be recognized by using the “Expected Credit Losses Model”. The credit loss allowance is required for financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets mandatorily measured at FVTOCI, lease receivables, contract assets arising from IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, certain written loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. A loss allowance for the 12-month expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition. A loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and is not low. However, a loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Group takes into account the expected credit losses on initial recognition in calculating the credit-adjusted effective interest rate. Subsequently, any changes in expected losses are recognized as a loss allowance with a corresponding gain or loss recognized in profit or loss.

-131-

Transition Financial instruments that have been derecognized prior to the effective date of IFRS 9 cannot be reversed to apply IFRS 9 when it becomes effective. Under IFRS 9, the requirements for classification, measurement and impairment of financial assets are applied retrospectively with the difference between the previous carrying amount and the carrying amount at the date of initial application recognized in the current period and restatement of prior periods is not required. The requirements for general hedge accounting shall be applied prospectively and the accounting for hedging options shall be applied retrospectively. 2) Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture” The amendments stipulated that, when an entity sells or contributes assets that constitute a business (as defined in IFRS 3) to an associate or joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized in full. Also, when an entity loses control of a subsidiary that contains a business but retains significant influence or joint control, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized in full. Conversely, when an entity sells or contributes assets that do not constitute a business to an associate or joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interest in the associate or joint venture, i.e. the entity’s share of the gain or loss is eliminated. Also, when an entity loses control of a subsidiary that does not contain a business but retains significant influence or joint control in an associate or a joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interest in the associate or joint venture, i.e. the entity’s share of the gain or loss is eliminated. 3) IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and related amendment IFRS 15 establishes principles for recognizing revenue that apply to all contracts with customers, and will supersede IAS 18 “Revenue”, IAS 11 “Construction Contracts” and a number of revenue-related interpretations from January 1, 2018. When applying IFRS 15, an entity shall recognize revenue by applying the following steps:

Identify the contract with the customer; Identify the performance obligations in the contract; Determine the transaction price; Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In identifying performance obligations, IFRS 15 and related amendment require that a good or service is distinct if it is capable of being distinct (for example, the Group regularly sells it separately) and the promise to transfer it is distinct within the context of the contract (i.e. the nature of the promise in the contract is to transfer each of those goods or services individually rather than to transfer combined items). When IFRS 15 and related amendment are effective, an entity may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this Standard recognized at the date of initial application. 4) IFRS 16 “Leases” IFRS 16 sets out the accounting standards for leases that will supersede IAS 17 and a number of related interpretations. -132-

Under IFRS 16, if the Group is a lessee, it shall recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the consolidated balance sheets except for low-value and short-term leases. The Group may elect to apply the accounting method similar to the accounting for operating lease under IAS 17 to the low-value and short-term leases. On the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the Group should present the depreciation expense charged on the right-of-use asset separately from interest expense accrued on the lease liability; interest is computed by using effective interest method. On the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash payments for the principal portion of the lease liability are classified within financing activities; cash payments for interest portion are classified within operating activities. The application of IFRS 16 is not expected to have a material impact on the accounting of the Group as lessor. When IFRS 16 becomes effective, the Group may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the initial application of this Standard recognized at the date of initial application. 5) Amendment to IAS 12 “Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealized Losses” The amendment clarifies that the difference between the carrying amount of the debt instrument measured at fair value and its tax base gives rise to a temporary difference, even though there are unrealized losses on that asset, irrespective of whether the Group expects to recover the carrying amount of the debt instrument by sale or by holding it and collecting contractual cash flows. In addition, in determining whether to recognize a deferred tax asset, the Group should assess a deductible temporary difference in combination with all of its other deductible temporary differences, unless the tax law restricts the utilization of losses as deduction against income of a specific type, in which case, a deductible temporary difference is assessed in combination only with other deductible temporary differences of the appropriate type. The amendment also stipulates that, when determining whether to recognize a deferred tax asset, the estimate of probable future taxable profit may include some of the Group’s assets for more than their carrying amount if there is sufficient evidence that it is probable that the Group will achieve the higher amount, and that the estimate for future taxable profit should exclude tax deductions resulting from the reversal of deductible temporary differences. 6) IFRIC 22 “Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration” IAS 21 stipulated that a foreign currency transaction shall be recorded on initial recognition in the functional currency by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction. IFRIC 22 further explains that the date of the transaction is the date on which an entity recognizes a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability from payment or receipt of advance consideration. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, the entity shall determine the date of the transaction for each payment or receipt of advance consideration. The Group shall apply IFRIC 22 either retrospectively or prospectively to all assets, expenses and income in the scope of the Interpretation initially recognized on or after (a) the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies IFRIC 22, or (b) the beginning of a prior reporting period presented as comparative information in the financial statements of the reporting period in which the entity first applies IFRIC 22. Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of other standards and interpretations will have on the Group’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed. -133-

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs as endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC. b. Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments that are measured at fair values. The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows: 1) Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; 2) Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and 3) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. c. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities Current assets include: 1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading; 2) Assets expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; and 3) Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Current liabilities include: 1) Liabilities due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue; and 2) Liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification. Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.

-134-

d. Basis of consolidation Principles for preparing consolidated financial statements The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Corporation and the entities controlled by the Corporation (i.e. its subsidiaries). Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Corporation. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Corporation and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Corporation. See Note 15 for the detailed information of subsidiaries (including the percentage of ownership and main business). e. Business combinations Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. are generally recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Acquisition-related costs

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after re-assessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree, the excess are recognized immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain. Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value. f. Foreign currencies In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

-135-

Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. For the purposes of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations (including subsidiaries and associates in other countries that use currency different from the currency of the Corporation) are translated into New Taiwan dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income attributed to the owners of the Corporation and non-controlling interests as appropriate. On the disposal of a foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Corporation’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the owners of the Corporation are reclassified to profit or loss. In relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that does not result in the Corporation losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences is re-attributed to non-controlling interests of the subsidiary and is not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss. Goodwill and fair value adjustments on identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Exchange differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income. g. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (monthly weighted average) or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs necessary to make the sale. h. Investment in associates An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. The Group uses the equity method to account for its investments in associates. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. The Group also recognizes the changes in the Group’s share of equity of associates. Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

-136-

When the Group subscribes for additional new shares of the associate at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Group’s proportionate interest in the associate. The Group records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus changes in the Group’s share of equity of associates. If the Group’s ownership interest is reduced due to the additional subscription of the new shares of associate, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required if the investee had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for by the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings. When the Group’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in that associate (which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate), the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of that associate. The entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases. The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date on which it ceases to have significant influence. Any retained investment is measured at fair value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset. The difference between the previous carrying amount of the associate attributable to the retained interest and its fair value is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate. The Group accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate on the same basis as would be required if that associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When a group entity transacts with its associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognized in the Group’ consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate that are not related to the Group. i.

Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. If the lease term is shorter than the useful lives, assets are depreciated over the lease term. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. On derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss.

j.

Goodwill Goodwill arising from the acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment loss. -137-

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired, by comparing its carrying amount, including the attributed goodwill, with its recoverable amount. However, if the goodwill allocated to a cash-generating unit was acquired in a business combination during the current annual period, that unit shall be tested for impairment before the end of the current annual period. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss is recognized directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. If goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit and the entity disposes of an operation within that unit, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal, and is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained. k. Intangible assets 1) Intangible assets acquired separately Intangible assets (computer software) with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. 2) Internally-generated intangible assets - research and development expenditure Expenditure on research activities is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. An internally-generated intangible asset arising from the development phase of an internal project is recognized if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated: a) The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; b) The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; c) The ability to use or sell the intangible asset; d) How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; e) The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and f) The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

-138-

The amount initially recognized for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately. 3) Intangible assets acquired in a business combination Intangible assets (technological expertise and client relationship) acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost). Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately. 4) Derecognition of intangible assets Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, which are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized. l.

Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the individual or smallest group of cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent allocation basis. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount, with the resulting impairment loss recognized in profit or loss. When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.

m. Non-current assets held for sale Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the non-current asset (or disposal groups) is available for immediate sale in its present condition. To meet the criteria for the sale being highly probable, the appropriate level of management must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification. When to a sale plan would result in loss of control of a subsidiary, regardless of whether the Group will retain a non-controlling interest in that subsidiary after the sale. However, such investment is still accounted for by the equity method.

-139-

When the Group is committed to a sale plan involving disposal of an investment, or a portion of an investment, in an associate, only the investment or the portion of the investment that will be disposed of is classified as held for sale when the classification criteria are met, and the Group discontinues the use of the equity method in relation to the portion that is classified as held for sale. Any retained portion of an investment in an associate that has not been classified as held for sale continues to be accounted for using the equity method. If the Group ceases to have significant influence nor joint control over the investment after the disposal takes place, the Group accounts for any retained interest that has not been classified as held for sale in accordance with the accounting policies for financial instruments. Non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Recognition of depreciation of those assets would cease. When a subsidiary, associate, or a portion of an interest in an associate previously classified as held for sale no longer meets the criteria to be so classified, it is measured at the carrying amount that would have been recognized had such interests not been classified as held for sale. Financial statements for the periods since classification as held for sale are amended accordingly. n. Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss. 1) Financial assets All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. a) Measurement category Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments, available-for-sale financial assets and loans and receivables. i.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets are classified as at fair value through profit or loss that are assets held for trading. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss does not incorporate any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 25.

-140-

Investments in equity instruments under financial assets at fair value through profit or loss that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured and derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are subsequently measured at cost less any identified impairment loss at the end of each reporting period and presented in a separate line item as financial assets carried at cost. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of the financial assets can be reliably measured, the financial assets are remeasured at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount and the fair value is recognized in profit or loss. ii. Held-to-maturity investments Corporate bonds, which the Group has positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity investments. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment. iii. Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Dividends on available-for-sale equity investments are recognized in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income. When the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive the dividends is established. Available-for-sale equity investments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less any identified impairment loss at the end of each reporting period and are presented in a separate line item as financial assets carried at cost. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of the financial assets can be reliably measured, the financial assets are remeasured at fair value. The difference between carrying amount and fair value is recognized in profit and loss or other comprehensive income. Any impairment losses are recognized in profit and loss. iv. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables (including accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalent, and debt investments with no active market) are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment, except for short-term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial. Cash equivalent includes time deposits with original maturities within three months from the date of acquisition, highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and be subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.

-141-

b) Impairment of financial assets Financial assets, other than those at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. For financial assets carried at amortized cost, such as accounts receivable, assets are assessed for impairment on a collective basis even if they were assessed not to be impaired individually. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of 60 days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables, and so on. For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized. For available-for-sale equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment. For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty, breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization, or the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties. When an available-for-sale financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period. In respect of available-for-sale equity securities, impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income. For financial assets that are carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of accounts receivable, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When an account receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss except for uncollectible accounts receivable that are written off against the allowance account.

-142-

c) Derecognition of financial assets The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss. 2) Equity instruments Equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. Equity instruments issued by a group entity are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Repurchase of the Corporation’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Corporation’s own equity instruments. 3) Financial liabilities a) Subsequent measurement All the financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. b) Derecognition of financial liabilities The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss. o. Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. Revenues from sales of computer hardware and software are recognized when the items and the risks and rewards associated with the items are transferred to the customers. Revenue from integrated hardware and software solutions are generally recognized by reference to the stage of completion of the contract terms. Service income is generally recognized when service is rendered or is recognized over the term of the service contract under the straight-line method or the percentage-of-completion method. Contract profit for the current period is the difference between the cumulative profit at the end of the current period and the cumulative profit recognized in the prior periods. When total contract cost is estimated to be greater than total contract revenue at the end of a year, the excess should be recognized as operating cost in the current year. Other operating revenue is mainly comprised of rental revenue on leases of computer equipment, which is recognized over the term of the lease.

-143-

Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable. p. Leasing Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases. 1) The Group as lessor Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recognized as receivables at the amount of the Group’s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group’s net investment outstanding in respect of the leases. Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. 2) The Group as lessee Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. q. Employee benefits 1) Short-term employee benefits Liabilities recognized in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service. 2) Retirement benefits Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions. Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost (including current service cost and past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period they occur, or when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs/when the settlement occurs. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss. Net defined benefit liability (asset) represents the actual deficit (surplus) in the Group’s defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.

-144-

r. Share-based payment arrangements The fair value determined at the grant date of the employee share options is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s best estimate of the number of employee share options that are expected to ultimately vest, with a corresponding increase in capital surplus - employee share options. At the end of each reporting period, the Corporation revises its estimate of the number of employee share options expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the capital surplus - employee share options. s. Taxation Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. 1) Current tax According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings. Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision. 2) Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. If the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, the resulting deferred tax asset or liability is not recognized. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, unused loss carry forward and unused tax credits for purchases of machinery, equipment and technology, research and development expenditures, personnel training expenditures and investments to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

-145-

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 3) Current and deferred tax for the year Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. a. Estimated impairment of accounts receivable When there is objective evidence of impairment loss, the Group takes into consideration the estimation of future cash flows. The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. b. Write-down of inventory Net realizable value of inventory is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The estimation of net realizable value was based on current market conditions and the historical experience of selling products of a similar nature. Changes in market conditions may have a material impact on the estimation of net realizable value.

In the second quarter of 2016, the Group acquired a domestic non-maturity subordinate debenture bonds at par value with a coupon rate of 3.5% and overseas convertible bonds with coupon rates ranging from 5% to 6%.

The average credit period on accounts receivable was 78 days. In determining the recoverability of accounts receivable, the Group considered any change in the credit quality of the accounts receivable since the date credit was initially granted to the end of the reporting period. Based on the historical experience, the risk of non-collection of receivable was higher when the receivables were not collected on due date. The Group assessed the receivables individually and recognized an allowance for doubtful accounts of 100% against receivables that are irrecoverable. Allowance for doubtful accounts was recognized against other receivables based on estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience of the counterparties and an analysis of their current financial position. The aging of receivables (based on invoice date) was as follows: December 31

Less than 90 days 91-120 days 121-180 days 181-360 days Over 361 days

Because there was no significant change in credit quality and the amounts were still considered recoverable, the Group did not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements for these balances. In addition, the Group does not have the legal right to offset receivables with accounts payable with the same counterparty. The Group’s transactions were made with a large number of unrelated customers; thus, the concentration of credit risk was limited. The movements of the allowance for doubtful trade receivables were as follows: Individually Assessed for Impairment Balance at January 1, 2015 Add: Impairment losses recognized on receivables Add: Amounts recovered from prior year write-off Less: Amounts written off during the year as uncollectible Foreign exchange translation gains and losses Balance at December 31, 2015 Add: Impairment losses recognized on receivables Less: Amounts written off during the year as uncollectible Foreign exchange translation gains and losses

The cost of inventories recognized as cost of goods sold for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $9,961,443 thousand and $10,188,147 thousand, respectively. The cost of goods sold included inventory write-downs of $78,285 thousand and $13,900 thousand, respectively.

In the third quarter of 2016, the Group sold the corporate bonds successively and reclassified the remains of the held-to-maturity financial assets to available-for-sale financial assets according to the requirements of IAS 39.

Management believed that the above unlisted equity investments held by the Group cannot be reliably measured due to the significant range of reasonable fair value estimates; therefore they were measured at cost less impairment at the end of reporting period.

15. INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR BY USING THE EQUITY METHOD December 31 2016

In spite of holding less than 20% of the equity of Forms Syntron Information (Shenzhen) Limited, the Group has significant influence over the investee and adopts equity method, because the Group holds a director of the investee. As the Group planned to dispose all interests of Forms Syntron Information (Shenzhen) Limited in 2017, the Group has entered into a sale agreement in January 2017 and the sale transaction is to be completed in the second quarter of 2017. Therefore, the Group classified the carrying amount of the investment, amounting to $793,549 thousand, to non-current asset held for sale.

18. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS a. Defined contribution plans The Corporation and its domestic subsidiaries adopted a pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (the “LPA”), which is a state-managed defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, an entity makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages. The employees of Systex Info, RTIHK, Systek, Ucom Shanghai, Sysware Shenglong, RTGI, Systex China, Systex Ucom and Sysware Singapore are members of state-managed retirement benefit plans operated by the governments of their respective jurisdictions. The subsidiaries are required to contribute specific percentages of payroll costs to the retirement benefit schemes to funds the benefits. The only obligation of the Group with respect to the retirement benefit plan is to make the specified contributions. b. Defined benefit plans The defined benefit plan adopted by the Corporation and several of its domestic subsidiaries in accordance with the Labor Standards Law is operated by the government. Pension benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the six months before retirement. These entities contribute amounts equal to 2% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. Pension contributions are deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Before the end of each year, the Group assesses the balance in the pension fund. If the amount of the balance in the pension fund is inadequate to pay retirement benefits for employees who conform to retirement requirements in the next year, the Group is required to fund the difference in one appropriation that should be made before the end of March of the next year. The pension fund is managed by the Bureau of Labor Funds, Ministry of Labor (“the Bureau”); the Group has no right to influence the investment policy and strategy. The amounts included in the consolidated balance sheets in respect of the Group’s defined benefit plans were as follows: December 31 2016

As of December 31, 2015, the net defined benefit liability of $239,037 thousand was defined liabilities of $240,113 thousand, net of defined benefit asset of $1,040 thousand (included in other non-current assets).

-156-

Movements in net defined benefit liability were as follows: Present Value of the Defined Benefit Obligation

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law, the Group is exposed to the following risks: 1) Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks. 2) Interest risk: A decrease in the government and corporate bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.

-157-

3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation. The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations were as follows: December 31

Discount rates Expected rates of salary increase

2016

2015

1.38%-1.75% 1.00%-2.50%

1.50%-1.75% 1.00%-2.50%

If possible reasonable change in each of the significant actuarial assumptions will occur and all other assumptions will remain constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would increase (decrease) as follows: December 31

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated. December 31 2016

In the year ended December 31, 2016, the shares increased due to exercised employee stock options. Fully paid common shares, which have a par value of $10, carry one vote per share and carry a right to dividends. -158-

b. Stock-based compensation plan For the Corporation to retain its qualitative professionals for its business and operations and deepen the employees’ sense of belonging, the Corporation adopted stock option plans (the “Plans”), which the board of directors approved on March 19, 2010, to grant employees 10,000 units of stock options. Each unit represented 1,000 common shares of the Corporation. The Securities and Futures Bureau under the FSC approved the Plans on April 12, 2010, respectively. The Corporation issued 6,800 units and 3,200 units, on February 17, 2011 and May 10, 2010, respectively. The options were granted to qualified employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. The options are valid for 5 years and exercisable at certain percentages after the second anniversary from the grant date. The exercise price of the stock options is equal to the closing price of the Corporation’s common shares listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange on the date of the grant. If the number of the Corporation’s common shares changes after the granting of the stock option, the exercise price will be revised in accordance with the terms of the Plans. Information on employee stock options in 2016 and 2015 was as follows: 2016

Maybe used to offset a deficit, distribute as cash dividends, or transfer to share capital (1) Issue of common shares Donations May not be used for any purpose Changes in percentage of ownership interest in subsidiaries (2) Share of changes in associates accounted for by using equity method Treasury share transactions Gain on sale of property and equipment Employee stock options

1) Such capital surplus may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Corporation has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to share capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Corporation’s capital surplus and once a year). 2) Such capital surplus arises from the effect of changes in ownership interest in subsidiary resulted from equity transactions other than actual disposal on acquisition, or from changes in capital surplus of subsidiaries accounted for by using the equity method. d. Appropriation of earnings and dividend policy In accordance with the amendments to the Company Act in May 2015, the recipients of dividends and bonuses are limited to shareholders and do not include employees. The shareholders held their regular meeting on June 17, 2016 and, in that meeting, had resolved amendments to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”), particularly the amendment to the policy on dividend distribution and the addition of the policy on distribution of employees’ compensation. Under the dividend policy as set forth in the amended Articles, where the Corporation made profit in a fiscal year, the profit shall be first utilized for paying taxes, offsetting losses of previous years, setting aside as legal reserve 10% of the remaining profit, setting aside or reversing a special reserve in accordance with the laws and regulations, and then any remaining profit together with any undistributed retained earnings shall be used by the Corporation’s board of directors as the basis for proposing a distribution plan, which should be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting for distribution of dividends and bonus to shareholders. For the policies on distribution of employees’ compensation and remuneration of directors before and after amendment, please refer to b. employee benefits expense in Note 20. Following its Articles of Incorporation and considering the overall environment, growth trends in the industry, and the Corporation’s long-term financial planning and ongoing goal to have steady progress, the Corporation applies its residual dividends policy as follows: 1) Determine the appropriate capital budget. 2) Determine the funds needed for the capital budget.

-160-

3) Determine the amount to be funded by unappropriated earnings (the remaining may be funded through capital increase by cash or through issuance of bonds). 4) The remaining retained earnings, less an appropriate portion for the operational needs, may be distributed to shareholders. The Corporation’s dividends may be distributed in cash or stocks. The distribution of profits shall be made preferably by way of cash dividends. The distribution could also be made by way of stock dividends, which should not exceed 50% of the total distributed earnings in principle. In addition, dividend policy depends on criteria such as the Corporation’s current and future investment environment, cash requirements, domestic and international competition, capital budget, etc. Further, the Corporation also takes into consideration shareholders’ interests, balances of dividends and its long-term financial goals. Annually, the board of directors prepares a proposal on earnings appropriation for approval at the shareholders’ meeting. Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Corporation’s paid-in capital. Legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Corporation has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash. Under the local regulations, an amount equal to the net debit balance of total other equity items (including exchange differences on translating foreign operations and unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale financial assets) shall be appropriated as a special reserve. The special reserve may be reversed to the extent of the decrease in the net debit balance. If the Corporation’s shares are held by its subsidiaries at the end of the year and the market value of the shares held are lower than their carrying amounts, the Corporation should appropriate a special reserve equal to the difference between the carrying amounts and market value multiplied by its percentages of ownership in the subsidiaries. The special reserve can be reversed in proportion to the percentages of ownership in the subsidiaries when the market value of the shares increased. Except for non-ROC resident shareholders, all shareholders receiving the dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Corporation. The appropriations of earnings for 2015 and 2014 had been approved in the shareholders’ meetings held on June 17, 2016 and June 17, 2015, respectively, were as follows:

If the Corporation can settle bonus to employees in cash or shares, the Corporation assumes the entire amount of the bonus would be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares are included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, if the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares is included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the shareholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year. The pro forma net income and earnings per share, assuming the Corporation’s share held by subsidiaries were treated as investment instead of treasury shares, were as follows: For the Year Ended December 31 2016 2015 Net income for the year Net income for the year attributable to owners of the Corporation

The above transactions were accounted for as equity transactions, since the Group did not change the influence on these subsidiaries. Etu Corporation Cash consideration received The proportionate share of the carrying amount of the net assets of the subsidiary transferred to non-controlling interests

24. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The capital structure of the Group consists of debt and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital, retained earnings and other equity). Key management personnel of the Corporation review the capital structure on a periodic basis. As part of this review, the Corporation considers the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital. In order to balance the overall capital structure, the Corporation may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, the number of new shares issued or repurchased, and the amount of new debt issued or existing debt redeemed.

25. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS a. Fair value of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value Except that fair value of financial assets measured at cost could not be reliably measured, the management considers that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognized in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.

1) The balances included the carrying amount of fair value through profit or loss held for trading measured at cost. 2) The balances included loans and receivables measured at amortized cost, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, debt instruments with no active market, notes receivable, accounts receivable, refundable deposits, other receivables, lease receivables - current (included in other current assets), long-term receivables, pledged time deposits - non-current (included in other non-current assets) and lease receivables - non-current (included in other non-current assets). -174-

3) The balances included the carrying amount of available-for-sale financial assets measured at cost. 4) The balances included financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, which comprise short-term loans, notes and accounts payable, other payables and guarantee deposits received (included in other non-current liabilities). d. Financial risk management objectives and policies The Group’s main target of financial risk management is to manage the market risk related to operating activity (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk) and other price risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. To reduce the potential and detrimental influence of the fluctuations in market on the Group’s financial performance, the Group endeavors to identify, estimate and hedge the uncertainties of the market. The Group’s significant financial activity is reviewed and approved by the board of directors and audit committee in compliance with related regulations and internal control policy, and the authority and responsibility are delegated according to the operating procedures. 1) Market risk a) Foreign currency risk The Group has foreign currency sales, purchases and borrowings, which were exposed to foreign currency risk. The Group has designated a department to monitor exchange rate fluctuations in timely manner and change foreign currency position to control and mitigate such risks as soon as possible. The sensitivity analysis focused on outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities (mainly USD and RMB) at the end of the reporting period. A positive number below indicates a decrease/increase in pre-tax loss associated with New Taiwan dollars strengthening/weakening 5% against the relevant currency.

The Group acquired better interest rate through long-term cooperation with banks; therefore, the effect of interest rate fluctuations is immaterial. The sensitivity analyses below were determined based on financial assets and financial liabilities with floating interest rates at the end of reporting period. If interest rates had been 10 basis points (0.1%) higher/lower, the Group’s pre-tax net income effect would have been as follows: For the Year Ended December 31 2016 2015 Increase/decrease

$

3,308

$

1,675

c) Other price risk The Group was exposed to price risk through its investments in listed shares, TDR, corporate bonds and mutual funds. The Group has established a real-time control system for the price risk, and management does not anticipate any material loss due to this risk. The sensitivity analyses of the above investment were determined based on financial assets which were measured at fair value at the end of reporting period. If market prices had been 5% higher/lower, the effects on the Group’s pre-tax net income and other comprehensive income would have been as follows: For the Year Ended December 31 2016 2015 Pre-tax net income Increase/decrease Other comprehensive income Increase/decrease

$ 143,998

2) Credit risk Credit risk represents the potential loss that would be incurred by the Group if the counterparties breached contracts. Generally, the maximum exposure to credit risk for financial assets at the balance sheet date are their carrying amounts. The Group has delegated a department responsible for managing accounts receivable, establishing credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure the profitability of the Group. The Group only transacts with creditworthy financial institutions to reduce credit risk. Since the counterparties are creditworthy financial institutions and enterprises and the concentration of credit risk is not significant, the credit risk is anticipated to be immaterial. 3) Liquidity risk The Group has put in place inventory management system, procedures for collections and payments, and develops cash flow forecast to ensure the liquidity of operating capital. In addition, the Group invests idle funds in short-term market under consideration of liquidity, security and profitability. The Group also maintains banking facilities to ensure the liquidity of cash.

The Group has sufficient working capital to meet the cash needs for their operations. Thus, no material liquidity risk is anticipated. In addition, the Group’s investments in mutual funds and listed shares are publicly-traded in an active market and can readily be sold in the market at their approximate fair values. However, the Group also invested in unlisted stocks, subordinate debenture bonds and convertible bonds with significant liquidity risks because these assets do not have quoted market prices in an active market.

Conduct short-term operations with idle funds under conditions of maintaining fluidity, security, and profitability. The Company shall also establish financing credit lines with banks to maintain fluidity of funds. D. Credit Risks: Risks in which customers and suppliers cannot perform payment or delivery. Risk Assessment: Due to industry characteristics, the Company faces longer payment cycles from clients.

The credit risks of transaction partners shall also be taken into consideration.

The Company's operating funds are readily available and the Company conducts short-term operations with idle funds under conditions of maintaining fluidity, security, and profitability. The Company maintains close relations with banks in long-term collaboration and uses the banks' assistance to obtain favorable interest rates and conditions. The Company's income on interest remains higher than interest expenses and therefore changes in interest rates have limited effects on the Company's profitability. The Company shall continue to monitor trends in interest rate changes and maintain a high degree of profitability while taking into account the requirements for security and fluidity in order to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates.

Due to fluctuations in the RMB-USD exchange rates in 2016 that caused the net loss in exchange to increase from the previous year, the Company's corporate financing personnel used transactions with financial institutions and the Internet to collect information on changes in exchange rates, adjusted the Company's foreign exchange positions, and estimated the cash flow in foreign currency expenditure for the purpose of controlling risks as early as possible. In principle, the Company uses income in foreign currencies to pay for foreign currency expenditures to achieve natural hedging effects and therefore changes in interest rates have limited impact on the Company's profits and losses. (c) Inflation The Company maintains close and good relations with suppliers and customers and pays attention to fluctuations in market prices in order to make timely adjustments in response to market fluctuations in purchase and sales prices as well as to lower the impact of changes in inflation. The Company's main suppliers are IT firms and the Company pays attention to the changes in prices of products from original manufacturers at all times to prevent major impact of changes in cost on the Company's profits and losses.
